Publisher Description
She vowed she’d never date a cowboy…
LeAnn “Killer” Keller is determined to be the first woman in the WPRCA to win a buckle in bull riding. She’s sworn off the distraction of rodeo cowboys, until her sister hires veteran bull rider Dylan Porter, not knowing that LeAnn and he indulged in a steamy one-night stand last season. LeAnn intends to keep their night together a secret, but Dylan’s kind, sweet and oh so tempting.
Dylan Porter was eager to reconnect with the woman who rocked his world last season, but he never imagined he’d be training her to ride bulls. She wants to keep their hook up a secret from her overly protective family, which is disappointing because Dylan felt like she could be the one. He’d like to walk away, but he needs the money.
When a male rider is killed by a bull gone wild, Dylan tries to keep LeAnn from competing. He knows she’ll never forgive him if she misses her shot, but he’d rather have her safe, even if he loses her forever.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Schmidt (Moonlight Secrets) launches her Sweethearts of the Rodeo series with this sweet and steamy contemporary. Last rodeo season, bronc rider LeAnn "Killer" Keller suffered a disappointing loss in the ring and afterward lost her virginity in a one-night stand with rodeo star Dylan Porter. Now she's ready to get back in the saddle, this time as one of the few female bull riders. For his part, Dylan is eager to trade bucking bulls for a future running an animal sanctuary. When LeAnn's sister hires Dylan to coach LeAnn and get her ready for her bull riding debut, he agrees, having never understood why LeAnn ghosted him. The reunited duo has explosive chemistry, but LeAnn's desire to keep their past hookup a secret and Dylan's fear for her safety in the ring could get in the way of a relationship. And when a shady rodeo fan decides to game the system to ensure his gambling pays off big, riders' lives are endangered—including LeAnn's. Schmidt writes with authority about the rodeo circuit, and her spunky heroine and honorable, dedicated hero will draw immediate love from cowboy romance fans. Readers will look forward to the next installment.
